[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The US has banned a number of scottish fans from coming, despite their having tickets etc.[/quote]

They’re called hooligans. In the EU they’re identified with facial recognition and dealt with.

Scotland is in Group C and play their first two games at Boston Stadium. Check out the articles below about Scottish fans, called The Tartan Army.

“Scotland fans call themselves the Tartan Army. They once coordinated getting 200,000 people to Germany for a match, and now they will pack 250 fans into Hennessy's bar near Faneuil Hall before Scotland faces Haiti at 9 p.m. on Saturday, June 13.”

“The Scotland fans plan to celebrate for three hours and then head to the stadium in Foxboro in 12 school buses that have been chartered by the Tartan Army. They will be making a pitstop on the ride, but not for gas.”

"We're heading on down to the stadium with a stop at an off-license to pick up about 4,500 cans of lager to get us through," said Teevan. "I don't know how much will be back there on the way back. Probably not too much."

12 buses?  Good luck to them.  There is not a lot of parking at Foxboro Stadium.  [/quote]
